"Consign the Anti-Government Evangelists to the Dustbin of History"

By W. James Antle, III on 1.21.09 @ 1:26PM

That's Katrina Vanden Heuvel's advice to the new president. It sounds a lot like Michael Gerson's advice to the last one.

In spite of being a Republican, I have to go along with Katrine VH on this one...

Roy| 1.21.09 @ 2:29PM

Anybody here able to play this game with a straight face at Democrat sites? "In spite of being a Democrat" I disagree with everything Democrats stand for and agree with, say, Rich Lowry?

He's a joke.

How do you consign people to the dustbin of history? Bob doesn't sound like a very tolerant person and not a very convincing Republican either.

Robert Stacy McCain| 1.21.09 @ 2:48PM

Good joke, James, but shouldn't you have hung it on David Brooks instead? Agreed, Gerson sucks, but his suckitude is so obvious that no conservative could possibly take him seriously. He's annoying but harmless.

Bob is an elitist who believes that moral standards are tedious. He hates SoCons.

J David| 1.21.09 @ 2:57PM

Once God, and morality, and resulting troublesome things like, say, PRINCIPLES (scruples, ideals, veracity, etc...) are put out of the way, there is not much separating RINOs and commie-lib Dems. They, the ones who aren't moby-trolls, have trouble realizing what they sound like, objectively, because they worship themselves, and as gods, they can only be omniscient, and never wrong.

Actually, Ruth, I didn't post that comment -- it was another Bob. I am all for a more limited government and have consistently said so. I cannot stand KVH -- she grates on me even more than the thin skinned Quin who cannot stand opposing opinions. She farther out there than even you!!!!

Bob| 1.21.09 @ 3:24PM

Get back in my id, there, Bob...We like the godless self-worshipers, whomever they may be. It is the emotion-over-reason we claim not like.

ruth| 1.21.09 @ 3:25PM

Bob, the fact that we believed it was your post is a testament to how much we distrust you.

ruth| 1.21.09 @ 3:58PM

Bob, I know I'm wrong, but my faith is blind.

J David| 1.21.09 @ 4:05PM

The fact that the *supposedly* counterfeit post was believable is a testament to known soullessly pragmatic RINO-stacy.

ruth| 1.21.09 @ 4:11PM

Bob, did you post under my name at 3:58? J David? Why?

Alan Brooks| 1.21.09 @ 4:15PM

well be rthankful for small favors, we dont HAVE to be "nice" to mau maus anymore.
but go easy on bob, he's more informed than Jer.
we'll coddle Bob. that is, the real Bob. whomever he is. if he comes here he must be v. curious to pick our brains and see what he can get.

the marketplace of phony lib ideas.

Alan Brooks| 1.21.09 @ 4:17PM

ruth| 1.21.09 @ 4:22PM

Alan, what do you think of Interloper? A commie?

J David| 1.21.09 @ 4:45PM

I didn't use your name, Ruth.

Alan Brooks| 1.21.09 @ 4:45PM
